Seth Rollins vs AOP

In late 2018, Roman Reigns announced that he was relinquishing the Universal title and taking time off to battle leukemia. The announcement took the wrestling world by storm, and The Big Dog was given an emotional send-off by Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose. On the same night, Ambrose and Rollins took on Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler with the WWE RAW Tag Team titles on the line. The babyfaces won the match, and the belts, but more surprises were in store for the fans. Following the victory, Ambrose turned on Rollins and attacked him.

On the November 5, 2018, edition of WWE RAW, Constable Corbin pitted Rollins in a Handicap Tag Team title match against Authors of Pain. Rollins was holding the Tag Team titles, but there was no way Ambrose would help him defend the belts at that point. A double-team effort by AOP ended Rollins and the villains won the RAW Tag Team titles.
